Sirach 30:15

15 Being healthy and fit is better than any gold, and a strong spirit is better than untold riches.

Sirach 30:15 In-Context

13 Educate your children, and work on them, so that you don't end up offended by their shameful behavior.
14 It is better to be poor, but healthy and strong, than a rich person whose body is afflicted.
15 Being healthy and fit is better than any gold, and a strong spirit is better than untold riches.
16 No wealth is better than a healthy body, and no gladness is better than happiness in one's heart.
17 Death is better than a bitter life, and eternal rest is better than chronic illness.
